      Tasting notes :

      Eye-catching pale pink wine with a hint of salmon, which expresses the natural color of the pink or "grigio" skins of the grape variety. The bouquet is delicate with aromas of poached pear and a touch of wild raspberry. There's good fruit concentration, with hints of red apple and poached strawberry. At the same time, the rounded texture is supported by smooth, supple acidity and a long mineral finish — authentic Pinot Grigio with real character.
      Food matching ideas: Cold fish starters to spring-summer kinds of pasta. It is excellent with seafood dishes and mildly spicy Asian, Thai, and modern Japanese cuisine.
